Before the euro, countries adjusted misaligned production costs by devaluing or revaluing their exchange rates.

If income is expected to be low (perhaps because of other missing networks), it does not pay to connect a firm or a household to the network, because the fixed costs will not be recouped. Growth is not inclusive because fixed costs deter markets from extending the networks that underpin it.

The steady increase in production costs, partly attributable to high borrowing costs, is squeezing enterprises profit margins of small and medium sized enterprises in particular.

Labor and many product markets remain closed, despite the urgent need to increase competition, lower production costs, and raise productivity.

For producers, there are increased costs due to multiple certifications, more paperwork, loss of production or increased costs due to the use of inappropriate standards, delays in marketing, and dependency on importers.
